I had ribs, pulled pork, burnt ends, and brisket with fries, mac&cheese, and corn bread. It was a feast.

That looks good except for the stuff on the burger, it looks like ketchup, mustard, and pickles. Yuck, I only eat burgers plain as I dislike all condiments.

I'm sort of the same way - the only things I like on a burger are cheese, bacon, BBQ sauce (but not ketchup), and lettuce or spinach (preferably the latter, as there's no "core" to it).

Tonight's menu: lowbrow casserole - diced chicken breast, Spanish rice, mixed vegetables, Italian cheese blend (mozzarella, provolone, asiago, parmesan, romano), and some cream of chicken soup.

sometimes you might want a hot drink but you don't want coffee or tea

you can mix vanilla creamer or hazelnut creamer with boiling water and get a real cool hot drink that you can't get anywhere

the places such as Dunkin Donuts only offer hot chocolate - nothing similar to this

Bob may scold me... Played a VERY quick round of golf and it was still lunch time... stopped at Wendy's on way home... They have a deal called '4 for $4'. Double stack burger, 4 chicken nuggets, fries, and a soda. It was like $4.83. I figured it was a mistake, but I looked carefully and they scribbled over the '4 for $4', '4 for $4.44'. Hit the spot.

We had twenty pounds of lobster meat flown in for the 4th, and one of the residents was making lobster rolls. I was in the right place and got to try a few samples.

We've been eating a tortellini salad:

Tortellini
Sliced cucumber
Sliced black olives
Diced tomatoes
Diced onion
Olive oil
Feta cheese

The combinations of textures and tastes has made this an outstanding dish.

That sounds wonderful. I had 12 tiny frozen meatballs today. It is not doing a good job soaking up the alcohol.

sometimes I want chili and it's pretty hard to find good chili
I found these beans at the grocery and although they don't call it chili that's basically what it is
and they are very good - the other chili from a can that I've tried has ranged from mediocre to real bad
all you need to do is add some tasty ground beef and you have a very good chili

my better half marinated whole chicken wings overnight in McCormick taco seasoning
then slow cooked it stovetop in a covered pan with green peppers, red peppers and onions
she cooked the brown rice separately stovetop - the rice is better that way than in a rice cooker
excellent - the taste was like fajitas but better because the wings have more flavor than the chicken breasts
when I started eating Mexican food I thought it was weird that they gave you sour cream with the meat
now I like it, it works nicely with the spices

I've been back on Nutrisystem for the last six weeks, and last night had their frozen chicken fajitas for the first time. I was pretty impressed. Enough for two burrito shells, and just spicey enough to do the job. most of their food is rather bland.

I wanted a substantial snack
I took a high quality piece of bread and put some margarine on it
I heated up some Ragu spaghetti sauce in the microwave (could have used pizza sauce)
I heated the bread in the microwave for just a few seconds
I spread the sauce and some liquidy cheddar cheese on the bread

pretty damn good
doesn't compete with the great pizzas of the world
but it beat about 90% of the frozen pizzas out there






pretty strange (to me anyway)
I was in a restaurant in Paris ordering a pizza
on their menu, all of their specialty pizzas included an "oeuf" (egg) as a topping
I didn't order a specialty pizza, I ordered one with 3 toppings
and I specifically said, in French, "I don't want an "oeuf" on my pizza
I got an "oeuf" anyway

Today, and for the third time in a week, I ate General Tso's Chicken.

I've been obsessed with it since last weekend when I saw the documentary "The Search for General Tso" on Hulu.

It's not just about the chicken dish and the General himself, but also about how Chinese-American cuisine has evolved since the early 1900s.

Tonight's version was the worst — it tasted like they made it in the style of Orange Chicken but used General Tso sauce ingredients — but it was still pretty good.

I also had instant ramen for my meal yesterday. Mine was a spicy chicken version. It wasn't very filling but it was just enough to hold me over until today. I believe we are eating out today at the Bootlegger restaurant and then meeting some out of state friends at Stage Door.
